Justification for CLT-acid as a read across substance for the short-term fish toxicity of 2B-acid:

The read across substance CLT-acid (CAS-no. 88 -53 -9) differs from the registered substance 2B-acid (CAS-no. 88 -51 -7) only by the exchanged positions of the methyl and the clorine substituents. All other structural elements and positions are identical.
